 naw man! we should all live life to the fullest  do it so we can live vicariously through you! at least i am. i wish i could do stuff like that. i want to go hang gliding some day.   I will do it, I might lose my job but heck!
registration fees have been payed already, now we'll have to buy a crap car and start raising funds, attracting sponsors to finance us. We've already contacted a tv-station and they are interested! | |

ok, we've bought our first car:
Daihatsu Hi-Jet, 4 x 4, 1988.....we got it off eBay, 50.000 KM (which is NOT much!), $ 900..... It is Frankfurt, Germany right now so me & a buddy will be off to Frankfurt on Friday after work to pick it up on Saturday and return it to Amsterdam. Then we'll have to prepare it for the big journey.... We also need to buy another Hi-Jet for team two..... Now we also have official team-names: Hi-Jet Set I & Hi-Jet Set II | |

| i love it!!
esp this part on the site: Other expenses to consider
REPAIRS This will depend on your mechanical know how and how many spares you carry. There could come a point beyond all repair where you need to buy a camel to carry on. At current market prices the going rate for camels is 1/8 of a wife. | |

At current market prices the going rate for camels is 1/8 of a wife. oh, all that is very negotiable. if your wife is, say, fairly hot, she'll cost much more than 8 camels... (but of course we know that all abierman hangs out with are "plain janes," so 8 camels should be fine. ) | |

ok, let me tell you about the team.....we're a bland mix of guys:
The dutch: Me, Tijs, Jesse The germans (oh lawd.....): Thom & Chris The Irish-man (otherwise WE will have to get drunk everyday!): Anthony The Dutch-Moroccan (our token muslim, he's the only one who's circumsized so he'll get us into the Stans just by showing his dick....): Jillali We've given eachother different tasks for preparation, I am in charge of setting out the best route and I also lead the bullshit-team, which is to think of one complete useless stupid activity to do for each day..... we do take ourselves very seriously.....
Allah & God, shake hands and be with us!
. this is going to be the coolest thing I have ever done in my life! [Edited 4/4/06 13:09pm] | |
